I couldn’t find Skye this morning when I went in to water her, and I was freaking out!

I called Jeff in, and he was able to find her - in the bottom of the ficus plant digging a hole. She was jet black, which is why I didn’t see her.

Skye is a little escape artist, and we found her in Sully’s cage a while ago, so I’m not sure if they mated, or if she is laying infertile eggs.

I hope they are fertile, but at the same time I’m scared because I know that laying eggs reduces the life span of the female chameleons - whether they are fertile or not.

Female chameleons can also retain sperm, so they can lay eggs about three weeks after the last time - but that really reduces their life span so I’m going to have to do some research on how maximize her life span while minimizing stress.

I took some pictures, but they didn’t turn out, and I don’t want to scare Skye any more, so no pictures today.

I’ll keep you updated though.
